rip it. I don't know of any good rippers in windows. I've always downloaded my tunes because my cd's would take too long to rip. But I think that's the concept to copy it from the cd to your drive.........rip! :P

If you plan on ripping some albums, please do the filesharing community a favour and rip at 192 bitrate or higher. Most people are split between CBR (Constant Bit Rate) and VBR (Variable Bit Rate) so I'll let you decide what to choose. I rip at 192 CBR. The settings aren't much to look at, so it shouldn't take no more than 20 seconds. I think the default is set to 128 bitrate :x

You should give EAC - Exact Audio Copy (http://www.exactaudiocopy.de) a try. It is the best I find.

Agreed...However there are several others that do a fine job also.

You can only rip to wma with windows media player (unless you pay for the mp3 ripping). wma files suck
